User blocked

Greetings, I reported that other user and he was blocked, this course of action is preferrable instead of engaging in endless edit warring. Keep up the good work. Wareno (talk) 17:38, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Thank you for reporting him and yes you are right about edit warring. I actually tried to contact an admin to report him but he hasn't replied yet. Appreciate it. Javext (talk) 17:57, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Javext! Your additions to Ottoman–Portuguese conflicts (1538–1560) have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright and plagiarism issues. Here are the key points:

Limited quotation: You may only copy or translate a small portion of a source. Any direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. More information is available on the non-free content page. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners.
Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources as appropriate.
Image use guidelines: In most scenarios, only freely licensed or public domain images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide may help with determining a file's eligibility.
Copyrighted material donation: If you hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license the text for publication here. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
Copying and translation within Wikipedia: Wikipedia articles can be copied or translated, however they must have proper attribution in accordance with Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. For translation, see Help:Translation § License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being blocked from editing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 14:09, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AFD missing steps

Hi, I noticed that you had created an AFD and tagged the article for deletion: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Almohad conquest of Evora (1191) and Almohad conquest of Evora (1191). But had not completed step III of WP:AFDHOWTO. I've done so now (see [1] and [2] for future reference). I hope this was helpful and happy editing.

Hi, thank you so much, I forgot to do that. Keep up the good work. Javext (talk) 16:43, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Translation of Battle of Marracuene

Hi Javext. I just spent some time cleaning up Battle of Marracuene. When translating pages onto the English Wikipedia, please make sure that you follow other important content policies. In particular, as an editor adding content, it is your burden to include adequate inline citations. Additionally, searching for sources helps make sure that an article meets the English Wikipedia's notability guideline; another language version having an article does not mean it is notable on en-wiki. Best, voorts (talk/contributions) 22:45, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for everything. Javext (talk) 23:20, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
